Define the need. Then find the person.

A senior-led search starts with the decision behind the hire. We combine technical understanding, market intelligence and close client and candidate relationships to guide it.

Understand the business

We start with where the company is today and what it needs to achieve over the next 12 to 24 months. Its stage, operating context and existing team shape the capabilities the next hire needs to bring.

Challenge and align the brief

We test the responsibilities, technical requirements, seniority and compensation against that context. Where needed, we reshape the role or recommend a different sequence of appointments before the search begins.

Research the relevant market

Targeted research, industry relationships and direct outreach help us reach people beyond active applicants. What we learn about availability, motivation and compensation informs the search and gives clients a basis for considering trade-offs.

Assess capability in context

A title or résumé is only a starting point. We explore how a candidate’s technical, operational and commercial experience relates to the work ahead, then coordinate interviews and reference discussions to support an informed decision.

Support the appointment decision

We keep client requirements and candidate expectations connected as the search progresses. Clear feedback and candid discussion help both sides work through fit, outstanding questions and the decision to move forward.

One team, clear responsibilities

Every search is delivered as one coordinated assignment, with clear ownership throughout. Kris leads the client relationship and keeps the search aligned with the business and mandate. Matt leads candidate research, outreach and communication through the interview process. Rich works across both sides of the assignment, bringing technical, commercial and strategic perspective to the brief, assessment and decision-making.

Trusted introductions when you need them

When a mandate involves entering a new jurisdiction, establishing a new operation or building capability in a new market, the appointment is often only one part of the challenge.

Where needed, we can also connect clients with other trusted professional advisors relevant to the mandate.
